Breakfast Cake Recipe

1 In a saucepan, cook diced apples, maple syrup, cinnamon, vanilla, and butter over medium heat for 5–7 minutes until softened and saucy. Set aside.
2 Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and line an 8-inch square baking pan.
3 Blend oats into flour. In a bowl, whisk oat flour, all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt.
4 In another bowl, whisk applesauce, maple syrup, yogurt, melted butter, eggs, and vanilla. Then stir in the dry ingredients until just combined.
5 Spread half the batter into the pan. Evenly spoon half of the apple filling on top. Spread the remaining batter over the apples. Then top with remaining apple filling.
6 Make streusel: Mix oats, flour, and cinnamon. Stir in melted butter and maple syrup until crumbly. Then, sprinkle the streusel evenly over the cake .
7 Bake for 30–35 minutes, until golden brown and a toothpick comes out clean.
8 Let the cake cool in the pan for at least 15 minutes. Slice into 9 squares and enjoy warm (drizzle with extra maple syrup if you’d like).
